2. TP We will identify the relationships between objects and kinetic and potential energy by completing a lab P4L a skydiver releases 1,700,000 Joules of energy. Why is this so much more kinetic energy than if we had just tripped and fell? 3 minutes

3. TP We will identify the relationships between objects and kinetic and potential energy by completing a lab P4L a skydiver releases 1,700,000 Joules of energy. Why is this so much more kinetic energy than if we had just tripped and fell? What is Gravitational Potential Energy? What is Kinetic Energy? How can we measure these? 3 minutes

4. 2. Roll your car down the ramp 1. Set Up your ramp 6. Repeat steps 2-4 4. Repeat 3 trials and average the distances 3. Record the distance your car traveled 5. Add mass TP We will identify the relationships between objects and kinetic and potential energy by completing a lab P4L a skydiver releases 1,700,000 Joules of energy. Why is this so much more kinetic energy than if we had just tripped and fell? 7. Add height 8. Repeat steps 2-4 15 minutes

6. Conclusion Questions: 1.Did the height of the ramp increase the distance the car rolled? Why or why not? 2.How did the height and mass affect the car’s gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy? 3.Please draw a diagram representing where in your system your car had the most & least gravitational potential energy and where your car had the most & least kinetic energy TP We will identify the relationships between objects and kinetic and potential energy by completing a lab P4L a skydiver releases 1,700,000 Joules of energy. Why is this so much more kinetic energy than if we had just tripped and fell? 5 minutes
